2013 solo album from the Canadian singer/songwriter best known for his work with Born Ruffians. While he still is very much a part of the band, Lalonde found himself taking songs from their infancy and completing them on his own except for the odd piano and violin without ever wanting to share it with anybody else. But what he ended up with is a stunning debut LP. Thematically, his solo debut, Rhythymnals was originally centered around the notion of sound existing whether we do or not and our unique ability to interpret it and manipulate it. But in the end the album ended up sprawling outward to narratives about gender confused couples, a man who hates his boyish looks so he cuts his face up, long distance relationships and rejection. Rhythymnals plays out like a passionate whim that changes from day to day.
